I have a new conspiracy theory about the mysterious past of Jim Rockford and can't wait to talk to @epidiah.bsky.social about it.

I get a lot from listening to these conversations. Some of it I'm ready for, and a lot of it is seeding future approaches.

I get a lot out of this. It's great it's The Rockford Files. I enjoy the format & the moral compass. I want to highlight @ndpdesign.com analysis in the conversation. His word choices are great clarifying how narrative tools work & can be applied in one's own projects. twohundredaday.fireside.fm

New dungeon map I am working on for at the end of the Bone Forest hex crawl. It rotates at intervals triggered by character activity. Turns in Torchbearer. Hours in Basic/Expert D&D. The outer ring and inner ring rotate connecting each ring to different rooms.

The Wandering Blades campaign ends in 1 DAY and we are less than $2K away from hitting our 4th stretch goal. This means that I'll be digitizing my handwritten design notes and providing an annotated PDF of the design process to all backers! Also, we're less than 50 backers away from hitting 1,000!

I recently wrote down “naming things is like 90% of game design” and this is why. If the names are right it makes it much more likely someone will choose them!

RIP George Wendt. Iconic in Cheers of course, but also an absolute joy as one of the least appealing murderers in one of the weirdest 90s Columbos, Strange Bedfellows.

There are three forms of wrestling: clothesline, suplex and moonsault. Within those are infinite variations, but those are the three. Each can also be made into garbage. And I think that’s beautiful.

I NEED TO INFORM EVERYONE THAT ALICIA FOX’S NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX IS AT THE TOP OF THE LIST BECAUSE IT IS A THING OF PURE AND CONSISTENT BEAUTY THAT MUST BE SEEN TO BE BELIEVED. That is all.

Becoming a parent changes you, not b/c of all the responsibility and new perspective stuff (which is real, just not unique to parenthood imo), but because you now have a constant interactive view of how weird kids are, and how they think, and then you see it in yourself.
